Sell your virginity for 15 minutes of fame.
No joke. MTV has sunk to a new level and are sending out casting calls looking for men 18 and older who are virgins. An MTV rep has described the show as “a reality take on [The 40-Year-Old Virgin] … following men on their quest to find a girl and loose their virginity.”

Reality television has brought about a whole new culture of people who will do anything for a little bit of fame.
You can bet people will tune into this garbage too.
